The Services allow you to use Howl’s commerce and payments tools to discover and share advertising and marketing campaign opportunities (each, a “Campaign”), where you can help merchants and brand owners that use the Platform (“Merchants”) promote and sell their products and services, track your sales and earnings to see what customers buy, and receive payments, all subject to the terms and conditions below.
The Platform is owned and operated by, and the Services are provided by, Howl Technologies, Inc. (“Howl” or “we” or “us”). These terms, together with any documents expressly incorporated by reference herein (collectively, the “Terms of Use”) are entered into by and between Howl and any creator, influencer, publisher, individual, or partner that uses the Services (“you” or “Partner”). These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the Services, which include any content, information, functionality, services, or payments offered on or through the Services.

a. Account Creation. You may be required to create an account with Howl (an “Account”) and a username and password to access the Services or some of the resources offered through the Services (the “Credentials”). You may also be required to provide additional information that will assist us in authenticating your identity when you log into your Account in the future ("Unique Identifiers").

When creating an Account, you represent and warrant that all information you provide shall be truthful, accurate, and complete. You agree to maintain and promptly update all such data to keep it true, accurate, and complete.
b. Accessing the Platform; Account Security. You are responsible for: (i) making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the Services; and (ii) ensuring that all persons who access the Services through your internet connection are aware of these Terms of Use and comply with them. If you choose or are provided with Credentials, Unique Identifiers, or any other piece of information as part of our security procedures, you are solely responsible for the confidentiality thereof and must not disclose such information to any other person or entity. You also acknowledge that your Account is personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to the Services or portions thereof using your Credentials, or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your Credentials or any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you exit from your Account at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your Account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information. Howl reserves the right to delete or change your Account, Credentials or Unique Identifier at any time and for any reason, including if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms of Use. Howl will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by any deletion, change, or unauthorized use of your Account.
c. Partner Links. Once your Account is set up, but subject to your compliance with the other requirements of these Terms of Use, including without limitation the Section titled “Compliance with Applicable Laws, Rules, Regulations, and Guidelines” you can start: (i) using the Services and (ii) recommending products and services sold by Merchants by joining Campaigns. Howl offers a variety of tools further described at our Howl API Developer Documentation Page in order to provide trackable links so we can attribute revenue and sales to your efforts in connection with a Campaign (such links, the “Partner Links”). If you follow the instructions Howl provides in connection with the Tools, we will be able to track your revenue, and sales via your Partner Links. You bear all responsibility for complying with any instructions Howl makes available to you at our Howl API Developer Documentation Page and recognize that any failure to properly generate or use a Partner Link may mean that your Commission (as defined in Section III) may not include all product sales generated through your contribution to a particular Campaign. By using the Partner Links, you consent to any update of your Partner Links by Howl. The use of the Services is prohibited on any websites, newsletters, social media platforms, or other digital content, that you do not own, control or have legal authority to use and display content.
d. Linking Requirements. You may link to our homepage, provided you do so in a way that is fair and legal and does not damage our reputation or take advantage of it, but you must not establish a link in such a way as to suggest any form of association, approval, or endorsement on our part. You must not (i) cause the Platform or portions of it to be displayed on, or appear to be displayed by, any other site, for example, framing, deep linking, or in-line linking; or (ii) otherwise take any action with respect to the materials on our Platform that is inconsistent with any other provision of these Terms of Use. You agree to cooperate with us in causing any unauthorized framing or linking immediately to stop. We reserve the right to withdraw linking permission without notice. We may disable all or any social media features and any links at any time without notice in our discretion.
e. Third-Party Offerings. The Services may contain links to third-party websites, applications and content (collectively, “Third-Party Offerings”). When you click on a link to a Third-Party Offering, we will not warn you that you have left the Services and are subject to the terms and conditions (including privacy policies) of another website or destination. Such Third-Party Offerings are not under the control of any Third-Party Offering. Howl provides these Third-Party Offerings only as a convenience and does not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant, or make any representations with respect to Third-Party Offerings, or any product or service provided in connection therewith. You use all links in Third-Party Offerings at your own risk. When you leave our Platform, the Terms of Use and our policies no longer govern. You should review applicable terms and policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of any Third-Party Offerings, and make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any transaction with any third party.
a. IMPORTANT CONDITIONS. TO PARTICIPATE IN A CAMPAIGN, YOU MUST AGREE TO ANY CAMPAIGN OR MERCHANT-SPECIFIC TERMS ASSOCIATED THEREWITH, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE DURATION OF THE CAMPAIGN AND THE COMMISSION RATE ASSOCIATED WITH THE CAMPAIGN. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ANY CAMPAIGN OR MERCHANT-SPECIFIC TERMS OF A CAMPAIGN, OR DO NOT WISH TO PARTICIPATE BASED ON THE COMMISSION BEING OFFERED, YOU SHOULD NOT JOIN OR PARTICIPATE IN SUCH CAMPAIGN. HOWL WILL NOT BE REQUIRED TO PAY THE APPLICABLE COMMISSION UNLESS AND UNTIL PAYMENT HAS ACTUALLY BEEN RECEIVED BY HOWL FROM THE APPLICABLE MERCHANT. WHEN A CAMPAIGN ENDS FOR ANY REASON, COMMISSIONS WILL NO LONGER BE EARNED VIA YOUR PARTNER LINK FOR SUCH CAMPAIGN.
b. Commissions. You can choose which Merchant’s Campaigns you would like to participate in via the Platform. Please carefully read and review any Campaign or Merchant-specific terms before electing to be a part of a particular Campaign. When a Merchant runs a Campaign on the Platform, they will often offer a particular commission based on product sales generated during that Campaign through your use of the Partner Links (the “Commission”). Such Commission is subject to the specific terms and duration of the Campaign, and is calculated as a percentage of the revenue tracked via the Partner Links and Howl Platform. You will receive no commission at the end of the Campaign.
c. Early Termination of a Campaign. You acknowledge and agree that Howl or Merchant may elect to end a Campaign early, for any reason, in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case no Commissions will be owed after such termination date. Howl disclaims all responsibility, and shall have no liability, in connection with any decision to end a Campaign early.
d. Payment & Calculation of Commissions.
Howl has partnered with Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”), a third-party payment processor, in order to enable you to receive payments of Commissions due to you. By accessing and using the Services, you also expressly agree: (i) to all of the terms of Stripe’s privacy policy located at https://stripe.com/privacy, Stripe’s Services Agreement located at https://stripe.com/legal, and Stripe’s Connected Account Agreement located at https://stripe.com/connect-account/legal (collectively, the “Stripe Policies”) and (ii) that Howl may collect your data and share such data with Stripe solely for the purpose of enabling and allowing Stripe to provide applicable services to you. Except as otherwise expressly authorized by Howl in its sole discretion, in order to receive payments from Howl you must: (i) have a Stripe account with an associated linked bank account (the “Stripe Connected Account”) that has been fully set up and that complies with and meets the requirements of the Stripe Policies; and (ii) be located in, and have a Stripe Connected Account located in, the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore or Canada (the “Eligibility Requirements”).
Payment will be made in U.S. dollars. Howl generally pays Commissions for any given month approximately ninety (90) days after the end of such month. You may also receive payment of the Commission earlier if you elect to use the Instant Pay feature (as further detailed below). As applicable, Howl reserves the right to withhold payment to you in the event that Howl does not receive payment of its Commission due and payable from the applicable Merchant. You will be subject to a minimum threshold amount of one-hundred and twenty dollars ($120.00) (the “Payment Threshold”) before the Commission will be paid in any particular month.
All Commissions owed to Partner shall be calculated via the Partner Links and Howl Platform, and such calculation shall be final and binding on Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Partner Links and/or the Howl Platform mis-calculate or make any error in calculating the Commissions owed to Partner in any way (including, without limitation, by reflecting an over-payment or under-payment in the amount owed to Partner), Howl shall promptly notify Partner once Howl becomes aware of such error, and the parties will cooperate to rectify such issue. In the event of an over-payment, Howl may, in its sole and absolute discretion, either (i) direct Partner to return the amount of the over-payment, in which case Partner shall so within five (5) business days after such request or (ii) set-off and deduct the over-payment against future Commissions.
If any revenue or sales generated through your Partner Links are determined or reasonably suspected by Howl in its sole discretion to have been fraudulent, an abuse of the Services or the Partner Links, or otherwise in violation of these Terms of Use (such as, by way of illustration only, involving purchases that were made with the intent to return or cancel such purchases), you shall be liable for and shall return to Howl all Commissions attributed to such revenue or sales, and Howl reserves the right to withhold and/or set off any future Commissions against amounts owed to Howl hereunder. You may also be terminated from the Services, and Howl reserves all other rights and remedies under these Terms of Use and applicable law.
IF YOU DO NOT ABIDE BY THE TERMS HEREIN, INCLUDING THE SECTIONS TITLED “COMMUNITY GUIDELINES” AND “COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES, REGULATIONS, AND GUIDELINES,” HOWL RESERVES THE RIGHT TO WITHHOLD AND/OR SET-OFF ANY COMMISSIONS.
e. Howl Instant Pay. At the sole discretion of Howl, you may be eligible to receive payments for Commissions due to you on an accelerated basis. Howl reserves the right to revoke your ability to use Howl Instant Pay at any time. If you are offered Instant Pay by Howl, subject to a transaction fee (the “Transactional Fee”), you will be able to receive payments of your Commissions through Stripe’s Instant Payout feature into a bank account linked to your Stripe Connected Account. Howl will make payment for Commissions to your Stripe Connected Account, up to the Daily Payout Limit, and settlement to your linked bank account will be completed by Stripe in accordance with the Stripe Policies. “Daily Payout Limit” means the limit of funds that Howl may send to you using Instant Pay within 24-hours.
You shall pay the Transactional Fee for each payment you request through Instant Pay. The Transactional Fee and the Daily Payout Limit will be listed on the Platform, and are subject to change at any time at Howl’s or Stripe’s discretion. Any Commission amount due to you from Howl that is not paid through the Instant Pay service will be paid in accordance with subsection (d), above.
Stripe and Howl reserve the right to restrict, suspend or terminate you from using the Platform or the Services, including without limitation Instant Pay features at any time if, in their sole discretion, respectively: (i) Stripe or Howl determines that your activities violate Howl’s Terms of Use or Privacy Policy, the Stripe Policies, any applicable agreement between Howl and Stripe, and/or any applicable law; (ii) Stripe or Howl reasonably determine that the risk associated with your activities poses unacceptable risk to Stripe or Howl and/or their respective users; or (iii) for any other reason, in Stripe’s or Howl’s discretion.
You acknowledge and agree that Howl has the right to reverse any payment made to your Stripe Connected Account in the event that you violate these Terms of Use, Howl’s Terms of Use or Privacy Policy, the Stripe Policies, and/or any applicable law. You may not, and may not attempt to send or receive funds to or from a person, entity, or state where such transactions are prohibited by applicable law.
f. Taxes. Howl will report all Commissions and other payments under this Agreement, and may withhold any applicable taxes, in each case as required by applicable tax law in Howl’s determination. You agree to supply to Howl, upon request, all information that Howl requires in order to fulfill its tax reporting and withholding obligations, if any. Each party shall be responsible for paying any applicable taxes it is required to pay with respect to such payments.

From time to time, Merchant may make available to you certain Third-Party Rights expressly indicated as intended for use in connection with your participation in a particular Campaign (the “Merchant Rights”). You have a limited, non-exclusive, revocable right, during the duration of the applicable Campaign, to use the Merchant Rights solely for the purposes of creating content to promote Campaigns on websites, newsletters, social media platforms, or other digital properties that you either own or are authorized to use (the “User Channels”). You must not otherwise use such Merchant Rights without the prior written permission of Howl or Merchant, and in any event you have no right to use any other Third-Party Rights.
